Review on πŸ”§ Motive Products 0101 Round Universal Power Brake System Bleeder by Joseph Rasmussen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Surprisingly easy, fast and only requires one person.

This item is actually very good. I use it on a 2005 V6 Toyota Camry so I needed a master cylinder adapter with chain. I was impressed that the chain and wing nut actually worked. TIP: The wing nuts must be tight as we are only dealing with 10psi of pressure. I also took advice from other Toyota reviews to keep the pump bottle dry and only pressurize the master cylinder with air (10psi). When the fluid was low I relieved the tank by unscrewing the pump cap, removed the master cylinder adapter, filled the master cylinder to the brim with fluid and reattached the adapter to the master cylinder. It was very easy and didn't take much time. TIP: Important Toyota reviews. As soon as you fill the reservoir with brake fluid and the chain adapter is not installed correctly, brake fluid will fly all over the place. So using the dry method was surprisingly quick. It only took me 1 hour to remove all the liquid from all 4 wheels. I crawled under the car and connected the supplied short clear hose to the nipple and the other end to the soda bottle. I opened the breather and crawled out to see the reservoir drop 3/4 of the way down and re-tightened the breather. Did it on all bikes and laughed because it was so easy.

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
